A Time To Be Together

We will always love our daddy's (chapter 7)

Chase woke up and started looking around the nursery he was put in before he fell asleep for his nap. Chase moved around the covers so he could be comfortable. He then felt something poking at him in the back, when he looked back he saw Winter. She was burying her nose into Chase's fur so it wouldn't be cold. She got even closer to Chase to the point where she was cuddling with him. Chase didn't mind, he actually wanted to keep her warm if she was cold. Chase slowly started to close his eyes again when he heard a soft bark come from Winter. He looked down at her and she softly whimpered once and tightened her grip on Chase. (I hope she's okay.) Chase thought to himself. Winter slowly twitched her eyes and started to open them. "Huh, hmm?" Winter said as she was trying to wake up a little. Winter then saw how close she was to Chase. Winter was still tired and so she buried her nose deeper into Chase and closed her eyes again. Chase moved his paw underneath of Winter to check her diaper. She needed a change but it wasn't leaking at all, just very soggy. Then Chase felt his diaper, it was in the same condition Winter's was. "I needs a change." Chase whispered to himself. "Me tuu." Winter said patting her nose from Chase's fur. "Youw awake?" Chase asked, he thought she fell asleep. "Yueh, but I's awmost feww asweep because youw heawt beat is su soofin." Winter said as she put her ear up to Chase's chest to listen to his heart beat. "Can's I fawws asweep hewe?" Winter asked getting all comfortable. "Suwe, gu ahead." Chase said. Winter tighten her grip on Chase and her stuffed husky was beside her on the crib. Officer bear was beside Chase because he had his paws around Winter trying to keep her warm. Within seconds Winter was fast asleep at ChaseMs chest. Sleep was slowly taking over Chase again and he couldn't keep his eyes open any longer and so he accepted sleep. About an hour later Winter woke up in Chase's chest fur. "Man his so comfy." Winter said rubbing her head into his fur. "He feews jus wike Daddy." Winter said as she kept rubbing her head across his fur. Chase started to laugh in his sleep and Winter found it amusing. "Wow Chase, i's didn'ts knuw you'd was tickwish." Winter said as she kept going. Chase just kept laughing in his sleep until he finally woke up. "Whut awe yu's duin?" Chase asked his pacifier getting in the way of well constructed words. "I's didn'ts knuw yu's was tickwish!" Winter said as she kept rubbing Chase on the belly making him laugh even more. "Nu's! Stoppy dat tickwes!" Chase said still laughing. "Otay, i'ww top." Winter said pulling her head away from Chase's chest. "Fanks." Chase said. It was then that Chase sneezed and Winter's face lit up. "Bwess yu's." Winter said giggling. "Whuts su funny?" Chase asked confused on why Winter was laughing. "You wewe su cute when yu sneezed." Winter said giving Chase a friendly kiss on the cheek. "Oh, um.. fanks?" Chase said confused on what to say. Winter pulled away from Chase and grabbed her little husky plushie. "Hi fwuffy!" Winter said smiling. "Youw husky's name is fwuffy?" Chase asked. "Yueh, whuts youw teddy beaw's name?" Winter asked Chase. "His name is officew beaw." Chase said rubbing the side of his head across officer bear. "Dats vewy cute!" Winter said pulling Fluffy closer to her. A few minutes later Marshall and Shade walked into the room to check on their pups. "Hey baby, how are you feeling?" Shade asked Winter. "I'm feewing much bettew Daddy." Winter said yawning and hugging fluffy. "How are you feeling Chasey?" Marshall said in a babyish tone of voice. "I'm good daddy. Fank you fow askin." Chase said while stretching. "Well it's good to see that both of you babies are doing good." Shade said picking Winter up and out of the crib. Marshall did the same thing to Chase. "Oh my goodness Chasey, you need a change. You wet that diaper good!" Marshall said as he carried him over to a changing table that was at the side of the room. "You too sweetie, I'm surprised you had that much in you." Shade said. "Sowwy Daddy." Winter said about to cry. "No it's okay baby, I'm actually glad you used your diaper because that's what we bought them for." Shade said trying to make sure his baby didn't cry. "But i's used my diapew wifout you tewwing me it was otay!" Winter said getting worried that her daddy might punish her. "No baby, I've never said that, where did that even come from?" Shade asked worried his baby might be going crazy. "It must has been a dweam." Winter said sniffling. Shade was relieved to hear it was just a dream and carried Winter over to a changing table to put her in a clean diaper. "Look Chasey, these diapers have cute little blocks on them." Marshall said making Chase laugh. The boy diapers had little blocks on them while the girl diapers had little bottles on them. Marshall finished up changing Chase's diaper and so he went to go grab a bottle of milk from the fridge to put in the microwave to make it warm. Shade noticed what Marshall was about to do and he smiled at him. "Can you make that two orders?" Shade asked laughing at the joke. "Yeah sure." Marshall said laughing with Shade. Marshall grabbed two bottles of milk and put them in he microwave for twenty seconds. "Alright baby all done!" Shade said picking up his baby. "Fanks Daddy." Winter said blushing. Just then the alarm on the microwave went off telling them that it was done heating. "Milk is ready!" Marshall hollered. "You ready for your bottle of milk?" Shade asked Winter. "Yus!" Winter said confidently while spreading out her paws. "You ready for your bottle of milk Chasey?" Marshall asked Chase with a huge smile on his face. "Yueh." Chase said rubbing his head on Marshall's body. Marshall grabbed the bottles of milk and put them on the counter. Marshall then shook all the bottles of milk just in case. Marshall then laid down Chase so he could give him his bottle and Shade did the same thing to Winter. Chase reached up and grabbed the bottle and started softly suckling on it, while Winter waited for her daddy to put the bottle in her mouth then she started slowly softly suckling on it. "That's much better isn't it?" Marshall asked Chase who looked pretty satisfied. "I think Winter is liking it too." Shade said smiling and chuckling. As soon as they were done they both burped Winter and Chase and set them back down on the ground. "Alright, you guys still have two hours to play so make it count." Shade said telling them the time the park was going to close. "Can we pwease stay?!" Chase begged. "Yeah daddy pwease!" Winter begged too. "Hey Shade, how much does it cost to stay a night?" Marshall asked Shade actually considering I'm staying. "I think if you have a baby then like one hundred dollars a night. But I think if your a couple with any gender and two little's then like thirty a night or even free." Shade said trying to recall since it's been so long since he got the information. "Can you pay, I'm kind of broke." Marshall said lowering his ears in shame. "Yeah sure no problem, plus it means they can play longer inside with all the puppy toys." Shade said smiling at the idea of a sleepover. "Plus it'll be a good chance to catch up!" Marshall said making Shade agree with him. "Alright, let's go play!" Marshall said making both of the pups jump up excitedly. They all ran out of the nap time building and Chase and Winter went running to this little obstacle course that couldn't hurt them even if it tried. Everything was covered in a soft foam that pups wouldn't just themselves on. Zuma was looking at the park and he whined and put down his head. "Something wrong Zumy?" Rocky asked giving Zuma a cute little nickname. "I actually kind of wanna go play." Zuma said blushing at the fact that he just said that. "Well go ahead, I'll play with you if you want me too." Rocky said smiling. "What if we all as in me, you, Chase, Marshall, and Chase's and Marshall's new friend play tag?" Zuma asked. "I love that idea!" Rocky said smiling and wagging his tail. Zuma and Rocky ran toward Marshall Shade to ask them if they would like to ya with their pups too. "Oh hey Zuma, hey Rocky!" Marshall said smiling and wagging his tail. "Are these friends of yours?" Shade asked. "Oh yeah they are. Rocky, Zuma, I want you to meet my friend from pup school , Shade." Marshall said as they shook paws. "It's vewy nice to meet you." Zuma said. "You too." Shade said ending the hand shake. "Hey Marshall maybe we all can play tag." Rocky suggested. "Sure, let me call the pups over." Marshall said. Marshall called over Chase and Winter over to tell them the suggestion Rocky said. "Whut is it Daddy?" Chase asked. "Is sumfing wwong?" Winter asked worried. "Nothings wwong baby, Marshall just wants to tell you two something." Shade said pointing to Marshall. "Um Chase, who awe day?" Winter asked looking at Rocky and Zuma. "Dats Wocky and Zuma." Chase said trying to fight the pacifier because it was messing with the words he would say. "Awe day youw fwiends?" Winter asked coming out from behind Chase. "Yueh, they'we weawwy Nice." Chase said smiling. "Oh, nice tu meet yu two." Winter said holding out her paw. "Nice to meet you too, what's your name?" Rocky asked. "Wintew!" She said. "Nice to meet you. I hope we can be fwiends." Zuma said smiling. "Um Chase, is Zuma a wittwe tuu?" Winter asked. "Nu, why?" Chase asked. "He's weawing a diapew and he saws his r's wike us." Winter said trying to figure things out while getting confused. "He has a speech impediment and he has twouble going to the bathwoom." Chase said filling Winter in on missing information. "Otay, Fanks fow tewwing me befowe I did sumefing bad." Winter said coming out of her shell. "So Whut is it that yu needed?" Chase asked scratching his head with his back paw. "We were wondering if you all wanted to play tag together?" Rocky asked with Zuma by his side. "Sure, I think that sounds super fun!" Marshall said looking at the puppy's. "What do you two think?" Shade asked already knowing what Marshall would ask before he even said anything. They both jumped up and gave a happy squeal and agreed. "Zuma's it!" Rocky said running off. All the pups broke to different parts of the park trying to dodge Zuma. "I'm on youw tail Mawshall!" Zuma hollered as he was about to catch him. Marshall tried to run faster but he ended up tripping over a little bump and landing on the ground. "Gotcha dude." Zuma said tagging Marshall's head. "So I help you now?" Marshall asked. "Yup!" Zuma said running off because he saw Shade's tail. Shade was around a corner and Zuma jumped out at him but was immediately pinned down by Rocky. "Welp, looks like I'm it!" Rocky said giving Zuma a kiss. "You can bet on it." Zuma said returning a kiss. Rocky let Zuma and get up and now he had Marshall and Rocky helping him find, Chase, Winter, and Shade. "Come out come out where ever you are!" Marshall hollered out. Marshall then heard a little giggle come from a little tub next to him. When he checked it he saw Winter in it trying not to laugh. "I'm gonna get you!" Marshall hollered as Winter started to run off. "Gotcha ya!" Rocky said pulling Winter into a hug. "Aww no faw!" Winter said laughing. Now it was Chase and Shade. Whoever was tagged last would win the game. Marshall and Winter went to find Chase and Zuma and Shade went to find Rocky. "Wocky whewe awe you?!" Zuma yelled out. "Come out where ever you are Rocky!" Shade hollered out. "Chasey, daddy's gonna get ya!" Marshall hollered out. Marshall could hear a little giggle from Winter. "What's so funny?" Marshall asked. "I fink i's sees Wocky." Winter said giggling some more. "Well we can still get him!" Marshall said running toward where Winter pointed. Rocky heard them coming and saw them and ran off. "Zuma we found Rocky!!" Marshall hollered. Zuma then saw Rocky and past him and now they were all after him. They ran Rocky into a corner with nowhere to go. "We got you now Wocky!" Zuma said slowly coming close to him. "Well Zuma, you got me But are you gonna tag me?" Rocky said smirking. Just as Zuma was about to tag him all of a sudden everyone heard someone yell break and Chase jumped in front of Zuma making him jump back and Chase ran left while Rocky ran right. "Get them!" Marshall yelled playfully while chasing after Chase with Winter. "Wewe gonna get yu Chase!" Winter hollered at Chase as he kept running around the park. "Wewe gonna get you Wocky!" Zuma said as Rocky also kept running around the park. They were both laughing and looking back at their chasers that they didn't notice that they were about to run into each other. Then bam!! They hit each other and fell straight on the ground. Rocky was the first to get up from the collision. "Chase are you okay?" Rocky asked. "Oh my goodness Chasey are you alright?" Marshall said running over to Chase as fast as possible. Zuma, Shade, Marshall, Rocky, and Winter were looking at Chase with worried eyes. "Chase, are you there?" Shade asked worried something might have happened to his friend's puppy. Chase had his paws over his eyes and when he moved them they saw tears coming from his eyes. "Ow ow ow, daddy it huwts!" Chase said crying from the pain. "It's okay baby, no need to cry. Daddy is here and he'll make you feel better." Marshall said pulling his puppy into a hug. "How about we go sit down for a second." Marshall suggested as he lead Chase to a bench. Chase and Marshall sat down as Shade looked at Chase's injury. "It's just a minor bump to the head, you'll be fine pup." Shade said patting Chase on the shoulder. Shade went to pup school with Marshall but instead of wanting to be a fire pup he wanted to be a medic and he excelled in all of his classes making all A's. "Thank you Shade." Marshall said giving his friend a hug. "No problem Marshall, it's what I do best!" Shade said returning the hug. "You feeling alright Chase?" Rocky asked feeling like this was all his fault. "I'm fine Rocky thanks. Is something wrong?" Chase asked noticing how his friend had his ears down. Marshall took notice that he didn't have a lisp and saw that Chase's pacifier was missing. "I feel like it's all my fault that you got hurt, if only I was looking where I was going." Rocky said hitting the ground. "It's not your fault Rocky. I should have been looking where I was going too." Chase said pulling his friend into a hug. "Thanks Chase." Rocky said hugging back. "Chase, where's your pacifier?" Marshall asked worried he lost it. "I had it in my mouth when Rocky and I clashed. It must have fallen out." Chase said feeling bad. "I'm sorry." Chase said burring his eyes into his paws. "It's alright Chasey, let me go get it." Marshall said walking off. Marshall looked around where Chase and Rocky clashed and he saw a hint of blue on the ground out of the corner of his eye. He grabbed it up and noticed it was Chase's missing pacifier. "Found it!" Marshall hollered coming back to everyone. "Great job Marshall!" Shade said. "I bet you could find anything dude!" Zuma said amazed at how he found something so small. "Aww thanks guys." Marshall said blushing. "Hey Wocky, Whut time is it?" Winter asked worried at how low the sun was getting. "It's, 7:00pm." Rocky said making Shade and Marshall look at each other. "I think we best grab our stuff and find a room." Shade said picking up his diaper bag from the bench they were last sitting at. "Yeah good idea Shade!" Marshall said grabbing Chase's diaper bag. "You pups ready?" Marshall asked looking at Chase and Winter. They both nodded. "Wait what's going on?" Zuma asked confused on what they just said. "Shade and I are gonna spend the night here so the pups can play longer." Marshall said making Rocky's eyes light up. "Wait, what are we gonna do?" Rocky asked pointing at him and Zuma. "Why don't you guys spend the night too?" Shade said making Zuma look at Rocky. "Do you want to babe?" Zuma asked. "Sure. Can we get a room to ourselves?" Rocky asked. "Yeah, if your a couple planning on having a baby or finding a pup to act as your puppy then you can get a room for free for a night." Shade said making Zuma and Rocky jump up. "Wait weally?!" Zuma said surprised that was a thing. "Of course, this place should have almost everything!" Marshall said looking around. "Alright let me go get some more things from my car for Winter." Shade said walking off. "Alright, I'll do the same thing for Chase, let's meet in the lobby!" Marshall hollered to him. Chase walked off with Marshall to the Jeep while Winter followed Shade to his car to grab some things. "What all will you need Chase?" Marshall asked looking at everything they packed. Marshall planned on staying which is why he packed some extra things. "I'll need my pillow and blanket. Also I will need my movies!" Chase said. Chase wanted to name some more things but Marshall stopped him already getting the point. Marshall grabbed quite a few things and put them in a suitcase. "You wanna pup it, or so you want daddy to pull it?" Marshall asked looking at Chase. "Can you please?" Chase asked blushing and looking away while twisting his paws. "Sure baby." Marshall said grabbing the suitcase in his mouth. They walked up into the lobby of the hotel and waited for Shade. Shade's car was farther away then Marshall's car so they got there a little late. Shade opened the back of his car and asked if Winter would need anything. She jumped inside the trunk and looked at some things. "My bwankets, snacks, plushies, movies, and my piwwow shouwd Do." Winter said smiling and wagging her tail at her dad. "I think Marshall is getting a few movies, are alright with watching what ever Chase picks out?" Shade asked chuckling. "Yueh dats fine!" Winter said smiling. "I knew it would baby." Shade said kissing his little puppy. Winter gave a happy squeal and jumped down from the trunk. "All ready to go?" Shade asked putting all of Winter's stuff in the diaper bag. "Yup! Wait what about my pajamas?" She asked looking at where her footie pajamas were. "I already packed them just in case." Shade said patting at the bag. "Otay, let's go!" Winter said walking with her father. About five minutes later Shade entered the lobby and found Marshall sitting with Chase on a couch. "You ready to get a room?" Marshall asked. "Yeah, let's let you register just in case you come to this place another time without me. I'm already registered so we can enter under my name." Shade said walking up to the counter with Marshall, Chase, and Winter. "Hello, welcome to the little hotel, how may I help you?" The lady at the counter asked. "Hi I would like to register under Shade Spector." Shade said showing his card that he got when he first signed up. "Alright with all your company and the little ones your total comes to... fifteen dollars." The lady said making Shade jump in surprise. "I didn't think it would go down that much!" Shade said surprised. He then handed the lady fifteen dollars and she handed them a key. The key read, fr 4 rm 19. "We're on the 4th floor and in the 19th room." Marshall said grabbing the key. "We all ready to go?" Marshall asked Chase and Winter. "Yus!" They all yelled. Shade started to chuckle and when he turned around he saw someone that he faintly remembers. "Silenus?" Shade asked himself. "What was that?" Marshall asked faintly hearing him. "Oh it was nothing, let's go." Shade said walking forward. Marshall followed behind him while the two puppy's ran a little ahead of them playing. They went up the elevator and walked down the hall where they found their room. "Welp, let's go in." Marshall said unlocking the door. When they first went in they were greeted with a new house smell. The kitchen was to their right and they had a humongous living room. On their left were two doors. Shade opened up the one on the left and inside was a nursery with a crib big enough to fit a full sized adult. Marshall opened up the door on the right and found the master bedroom with a bathroom inside. "Is that the only bathroom?" Shade asked walking inside. "I mean it would make since. The puppy's are wearing diapers after all." Marshall said walking into the nursery. Marshall laid down his bag next to where Shade laid down his bag. "Chase it's time to put your pajamas on!" Marshall hollered. Marshall heard a Chase say 'k' and heard paw steps heading toward him. All of a sudden Chase came running in with Winter behind him. "Winter I think your dad has your pajamas ready for you. Go check on him." Marshall said nodding to the other room. "K!" Winter said walking out of the nursery. "Alright Chasey, lay down." Marshall said grabbing the footie pajamas he picked out. Chase laid down and waited for Marshall to take off his onesie. The footie pajama was blue with teddy bears all over it. Marshall then got to work on taking off Chase's onesie and putting him into a footie pajama. "Do you need me daddy?" Winter asked walking into the other room. "Actually I do baby. Come here and lay down so daddy can put you into jamies." Shade said patting on the bed. Winter walked over and laid down as her father was taken off her onesie. Chase was getting super impatient and he wanted to get up. "I'm sorry baby that this is taking so long. It's my first time please give me a little time." Marshall said as he was trying to find the way the footie pajamas went on. "Okay but please hurry, I wanna go play with Winter some more!" Chase said getting excited and wagging his tail. In the other room Shade was just finishing up on Winter. "There you go sweetie, already to go!" Shade said patting her diapered butt. "Fanks Daddy!" Winter said jumping up and giving him a kiss. "No problem baby." Shade said smiling as Winter ran out of the room. "Marshall please hurry." Chase said growing even more impatient. "Almost down baby." Marshall said zipping up the zipper on the bottom of the footie pajama. "Yay, thank you!" Chase said giving his daddy a kiss on the lips. "Hey, pick a movie to watch it's almost calm down time." Marshall reminded Chase before he ran out of the room. "Oh, okay. How about Lion king?" Chase asked holding up the lion king movie. "Go see if Winter wants to see it." Marshall said pointing to where Winter was sitting on the couch looking at a blank screen on the tv. "K." Chase said walking over to Winter. "Hi Wintew!" Chase said with the pacifier Marshall gave him in his mouth. "Hi Chase, Whut is its?" Winter asked with her pacifier getting in the way of her words too. "Wouwd you wike to watchs Wion king?" Chase asked. Winter's face grew wide at those words. "Of couwse, dats my favowite Disney movie!" Winter said jumping up and smiling while wagging her tail. "Otay, iww go teww Daddy!" Chase said walking over to Marshall. "What did she say Chasey?" Marshall asked noticing Chase walk in. "She says yes!" Chase said wagging his tail and smiling real big. "That's great buddy, go tell Shade what we're gonna watch okay little one." Marshall suggested. "K!" Chase said as he walked out and went to the other room. "Hoi Shade!" Chase hollered as he walked in. "Oh, hi Chase. You kinda startled me little pup." Shade said chuckling. "Sowwy Shade. Daddy wanted me to tell you something." Chase said walking up to Shade. "What is it?" Shade asked interested. "We'we watching Wion king, wanna joins?" Chase asked giggling a bit at how his sentence sounded. "Yeah sure, go on in there and wait for me please." Shade said as Chase walked out. Marshall was on the couch and Chase walked up to the DVD player and put the dvd in. Chase hoped on the couch and laid his head down on Marshall's lap. "Is Daddy coming?" Winter asked worried her father skipped out. "I think he's coming." Marshall said as he heard the master bedroom door closing with footsteps coming out. "I'm here sweetie." Shade said sitting down. "Yay daddy!" Winter yelled jumping on her father's lap. "Ahh!! Baby I told you not to do that!" Shade said getting hurt when Winter jumped on him. "Sowwy Daddy." Winter said putting her ears down and backing up. "It's alright baby, come her." Shade said as Winter camping walking back over. Winter laid down as Shade put her head on his lap. "Comfy?" Shade asked. "Yus." Winter said rubbing her head on his lap. "Let's start the movie." Marshall said pressing play. "Yay!" The pups yelled as they stared at the screen. About thirty minutes into the movie both Chase and Winter were fast asleep with their heads on their daddy's laps. Shade just kept staring up the ceiling thinking about something. "Is there something wrong?" Marshall asked noticing a weird expression on Shade's face. "No nothings wrong, I'm just thinking." Shade said looking at Marshall real quick. "What is it?" Marshall asked interested. "Well, do you remember that red and black pup from school?" Shade asked looking at Marshall. "Do you mean Silenus?" Marshall asked. "Yeah!" Shade said almost jumping up at how Marshall somehow knew. "What about her?" Marshall asked. "I could have sworn I saw her in the lobby looking at me with her big green eyes." Shade said trying to remember her. "Wait really, what would she be doing here?" Marshall asked. "Maybe she's looking for a baby. Or maybe for us?" Shade suggested his idea which sounded perfectly logical to Marshall. "Maybe, but what if it was something else?" Marshall asked. "Like what? Wait you can't be saying." Shade said finding a loss for words at what he thought Marshall was getting at. "Maybe she her self is an ABDL or a little too." Marshall said making Shade Almost jump. "No, she couldn't. She wasn't wearing a diaper." Shade said trying to make Marshall forget what he just said. "Oh, okay." Marshall said looking at Chase. "I think we should get these little ones in bed." Shade said chuckling at how cute Winter looked sleeping. "I agree with you." Marshall said as Chase rolled over. Shade turned off the tv and picked Winter up in his arms. "Daddy?" Winter said sleepy. "Shh go back to bed baby, it's bed time." Shade said as he gave Winter her stuffed husky. "K" Winter said as she fell asleep again. Marshall and Shade walked into the nursery and put both Winter and Chase into the crib. Chase felt Winter near him and he pulled her in so she could be warm. "Aww." Shade said with Marshall. "I think we should go to bed too." Marshall said as he walked out. "Yeah, let's go." Shade said walking out of the room with Marshall. "Sleep tight babies." Shade said as he turned off the light and a night light came on. Shade closed the door carefully so he didn't wake them up. "Ready to go to bed?" Marshall asked looking Shade into the eyes. "Yeah." Shade said walking into the master bedroom. Shade got under the covers with Marshall and Marshall turned off the lamp that was illuminating light for the room. Shade pulled Marshall close to him and Marshall could feel something like him. "Shade is that your paw?" Marshall asked chuckling. "Yeah, sorry." Shade said pushing Marshall back to where he was. "No it's okay if you want to cuddle." Marshall said blushing and smiling. "Really? I'm so used to cuddling with Winter I guess it's natural for me to pull what ever is close to me closer to cuddle." Shade said blushing. "I really don't mind Shade, go ahead." Marshall said as he felt Shade's paws wrap around him again. Shade pulled him close again and Marshall could feel his warm embrace. "Goodnight you silly Dalmatian." Shade said blushing and closing his eyes. "Goodnight doctor." Marshall said closing his eyes. Marshall and Shade couldn't stop thinking about Silenus. They kept wondering why she was here but they pushed it out of their minds to sleep. Within minutes both Marshall and Shade were asleep.
